“I am extremely happy to be back in Trento and start training – said Sokolov who arrived in town on Wednesday directly from Bulgaria – Trento is home to me, there is a great family atmosphere. I am confident this will be a great season, hopefully better than the last, I hope we can play good volley from the very beginning and make the fans enjoy themselves. I like the fact we have an even younger team than in the past, I am convinced this will make it even more exciting with players willing to give 100% in every training session”.
Sokolov played on loan last season in Cuneo and had a fantastic season, reaching CEV Champions League finals and losing in a thriller tie break vs home side, Lokomotiva Novosibirsk.
After departure of an almost entire team to Halkbank together with coach Stoychev, Trentino decided to take back Sokolov and give him chance to establish himself as a leader of this new Trentino.
